A sassy pilot. A cranky cattleman. And a storm that threatens to ruin everything…

For this dare-devil of the outback skies, emotions and Christmas are a no-fly zone for the bush pilot, Monet. Hired as a farm-sitter, she’s looking forward to her escape from the festive holiday season.

The only problem is the farmer has decided to stay home!

Humbug and heartbreak are all the Christmas cheer this cowboy can take, where Tim wants nothing more than peace and quiet to wallow in his misery.

Until Monet and her endless playlists bombard his home.

This grumpy boss had forgotten to cancel her contract—and she needs to go.

Because the longer she stays, the more layers she repairs of his broken heart.

But with a cyclone set to crash on Christmas Eve, the small town of Elsie Creek is in trouble and Monet will risk more than her heart to save the many.

But will Tim let her fly away for good…

Grab a handful of hope and fly away home in this friends-to-lovers romantic adventure, in the much-loved Australian Bestselling Elsie Creek Series.

Are you ready to Escape to a HAPPILY EVER AFTER?
